I get to be the first to rate this amazing song :) The mandolin sounds like you have been playing it for years NOT a few weeks!!! You are so talented big brother. I just picture Dusty and Brandon in my head as small boys and growing into men as the song flows on. Beautiful work! The melody is as smooth as chocolate in this one. It's so neat that I get to hear you sing and play even though we live so far a part. 'TWO SONS'='FIVE STARS' I will listen to this one a lot............after all, I have two sons too :)
Love and Admiration,
Rosie
